A Journal could include:
- missions completed
- the progress tab
- recipes
- things created and alchemy paths followed
- enemies encountered including strengths and weaknesses, pictures, numbers killed
- stories and info uncovered in any more mission related lore that is put into the game (such as the artifacts you get from killing bosses)
- game play stats (energy used, time played, crowns earned, number of levels beaten)

Or just a Bestiary that would include all the enemies you or your party has killed, strengths and weaknesses, number of them you've killed, pictures and attacks.

Thoughts or add-ons? I would really like to see this in the game, it would serve as something to read through or look at while not playing a level.

I really like this idea. It would give player something to do other than waiting for a day, playing a tier, and then signing off for the rest of the day. I'm kind of wondering what the progress tab would include, though. Would it tell you the next steps to completing your armor, or would it mean that the game would now include more of a story? I really do like this idea, though. It would be really great if something like this were to be added to the game.

The progress tab would be the one that's already in the game, that tells you your progress towards each tier

Dah Wiki.
*Point point*
No, but in all seriousness, it would be nice to see a Bestiary, like an instruction manual of sorts. If anyone here has ever played Tales of Symphonia for the Nintendo Gamecube, you'd know what I'm talking about. It would update with each enemy defeated, revealing a brief bio of the enemy, a stat weakness chart, quick facts, and a client-side "NOTE" platform, where you could keep quick notes. For example, if you beat the JK, you could jot down (Bring Faust - Always keep psn/fire/curse/whatever). Enemies that you haven't encountered would have a silhouette - enemies that you haven't beaten wouldn't show any of the information - except the image of the enemy. The enemy would be rotatable just like on the Character Screen. Maybe it could also house the "Recon Reports" as well, maybe putting places of the storyline together (if there is one)...etc. This would also apply with Weapons, Armor, Materials, etc. It would basically be a pocket wiki.
A++, would like to see this integrated.

or the ability to add stuff

or the ability to add stuff to the bestiairy?

When defeating a monster you get the entry, but it also leaves a space to write down information like "how to defeat" which you can trade with other players and such.

Make it a little more "TCG" like

@Mika yes that's exactly what

@Mika yes that's exactly what i mean, just a good place to put all that information, but inside the game instead.

@Dhaelos and adding the ability to put your own trade able notes in would be awesome too

It could even show the current map your on, rather than where it is now.
